Display Cables

The quiet failure point in a desk setup

Display cables fail in ways that look like a monitor problem: the picture drops out, the resolution caps low, or a new screen will not detect at all. This category covers the video cables GA Tech NZ stocks for external displays.

Video cables for laptop to monitor and laptop to television

Cables for presentations, dual-screen desk setups and console play

Buying in New Zealand

A failed cable should not stop a desk for a fortnight waiting on an offshore order. Stock is held in Queenstown rather than ordered in per sale, so orders placed before the 2pm cut-off dispatch the same working day and reach most New Zealand addresses overnight. Local pickup is available by appointment, and repair shops and resellers can request trade pricing through wholesale deals. Multi-port options are under adaptors and hubs.

Questions answered

Why will my monitor not reach its full resolution?

Usually the cable standard. A cable rated below your monitor’s resolution and refresh rate caps the picture even when both devices support more.

Can I connect a phone to a TV with a cable?

Many USB-C phones support video output over a suitable cable or adaptor. Check your handset supports display output before ordering.

Do you stock adaptors and hubs as well?

Yes. Adaptors and multi-port hubs are listed separately under the adaptors and hubs category.
